This group is for any adult that doesn't get the chance to jump rope anymore, because, well... they're not kids anymore. Don't let a silly thing like age get in your way!

Come play with us! We use padded weapons for handheld combat. Weapons are used in simulated battles called battle gaming and in some live action role-playing games (LARPs) but what separates Boffers from LARPing is that we do not dress up or use shields or spells.

Runners and walkers are welcome. The goal of the group is too share dog friendly races in the area and to provide a forum so that dog owners can meet and train together.
